Like many people I have submitted a few decks for the Update. Since I received a lot of positive feedback (especially on my newer submissions, all have positive rating and 4 of them still have 100% upvotes; thanks guys), I decided to post my decks here.
Some of the names are a bit lame and I am not good at writing lore, but I try to give synergies new twists.

First, my guidelines:
Spoiler for Hidden:
1. No generic decks (dishole, ghostmare, pestal, RoL/hope etc.) unless there is an opportunity to give them an entirely new additional strategy.
2. quanta and combo cards must be balanced properly
3. weaknesses are ok and wanted, but the deck should contain something that allows it to react to most strategies, so that it can always put up a nice fight (it does not have to beat everything though, just have the possibility to respond to it)
4. The Ai must be able to play it correctly (obviously)
Added guidelines for my newer submissions:
5. The cards have to fit thematically and there can be thematically fitting restrictions (e.g. my FFQ deck gets all its air quanta from damselflies alone and my deck "heavy dragon tears" uses the barely useful Inundation)

The decks:

Silent Golden tears:
Description: Name says all; Golden Nymphs produced by Tears allow extremely quick drawing, which will cause a silence chain. Act quickly or you will be silenced until your death!
150hp
normal mark
2x draw

This is a slightly modified version of a deck that one day I want to use as PVPdeck. It is the first submission I made and thus name and description could be improved; also it would be better if it showed silence in the icon rather than maxwells demon (Oops).

Eternal Grace:
Description: Eternal Grace can predict the future and is above ordinary threats. Creatures will be send back in time and it can quickly undo most damage suffered.
205hp

Well the description sounds a bit childish and I had to replace 2 mitosis with Rols so it doesnt deck out against Sosac/dimshieldspam (the Ai refuses to rewind Nymphs), but else I am quite happy with this deck. It combines 4 different synergies and another interesting feature is that it has only normal drawpower, but greatly enhances that fast. Maybe I should have lowered the hp a little (at first I didnt want it to be OTKable but by now that sounds like a good idea actually)

Energydrainer:
Description: This deck will absorb everything you have and use it to strengthen itself.
125hp

This deck is a mean Arenadeck, but at least its not a dishole. It probably only got thumbed up because the description fits so well.

This is my personal favourite! It uses the unpopular cards Poseidon and Dessication to their full potential and every single card fits the theme perfectly (well ok, maybe Pests werent meant to be water creatures, but I like to reimagine them that way).

Queen of the Flies:
Description: The Queen of the flies has got a lot of assidious workers; once they provided her with enough resources she will start to build her own hive.

Its a FFQ deck, but its air quanta are purely delivered by damselflies. Else it contains Wings, mitosis, adrenaline, SoFree and hope, so it basically uses all the synergies of semiupped FFQ decks.

Heavy dragon Tears:
Description: These tears are so heavy that they develop their own gravitational pull, drowning everything.

This is a modified version (intentionally slightly weaker) of  my only rank 1 deck back in the Gold League. People seem to like it.

Toxic Sea:
Description: Many toxic beings live in this Sea. Do you take the Antidote with you or just try to run through it as fast as possible?
100hp

The intention was to make a poisonheavy deck that puts the ability of the Toadfish to good use. It can be outrushed (and I wanted it that way, since people complained that rush decks arent effective against the new decks), but else its surprisingly versatile. It also fits the theme nicely.

I just found out that I seem to have clicked on submit when designing the decks Malformation and The Chaot. Those are unreliable experimental decks that arent 100% conform with my guidelines (and also have crappy descriptions); however their strategies are fun and people seem to like them. I will try to reconstruct the deckcodes, but I will need a bit of time to think for that.

Reconstruction of the chaot (a deck i thought was so bad i made it AI1, but its a bit better than that). Posting now since chunks of it have been posted in a few contexts and i was reminded (really surprised i never actually attempted to do it before).

Its a fun one, very swingy though.

malformation was some kind of graveyard mutation deck (using druids rather than the spell), probably with cats too and i recall some bonds in there as well.
